She is here to tell us how she feels about the city. What were the best things about Los Angeles? One of my favorite things about Los Angeles is the weather. I hate the cold and it never really gets that cold there. Plus, most of the time it’s usually sunny, which is good because I love going to the beach during the summer. There’s so much to do at the beach, but my favorite thing in L.A. was having a picnic on the sand with my friends. What were the worst things about being there? I disliked having to drive everywhere to get around because the city is so spread out. Los Angeles has a lot of traffic and sometimes it takes a long time to get somewhere close by just because the streets are so crowded. Also, a lot of people complain about the pollution.

Did you have any problems there? Just the normal problems of living in any city, like watching out for pickpockets (扒 手). Some people think Los Angeles has a lot of crime, but I think it’s as safe as any other city. Also, many people think driving is difficult because there is a lot of traffic and road rage (路怒症), but it just takes a little practice and a lot of patience. What are the people like in Los Angeles? There are all types of people in Los Angeles since the city is pretty diverse. For the most part, though, most of the people are friendly, calm and relaxed. Some people say that everyone in Los Angeles is beautiful, but I think that’s just a stereotype (模式化的 印象). Would you go back to Los Angeles? Certainly. Los Angeles is one of my favorite cities in the world. I love the fact that it has all the nightlife and shopping of a big city, but also has access to beaches, parks, mountains and other places you can’t usually find in large cities. Between the weather and the beaches and all the fun things to do, it’s a great place to be. 21. We can learn from the text that Michelle . A. Hates the heavy traffic in Los Angeles B. dislikes the cold weather in Los Angeles C. thinks Los Angeles is small and crowded D. enjoys driving everywhere in Los Angeles 22. What’s Michelle’s impression of the people in Los Angles? A. They get angry easily. B. All sorts of people live there. C. They are patient and amusing. D. Everyone is kind and beautiful. 23.

Michelle has no plan to return to Los Angeles B Hundreds of foreign aid workers are in West Africa treating people with Ebola and I’ve just flown from the UK to Liberia to face the deadly virus. I was first in Liberia five weeks ago. Back then, our treatment centre had already run out of room. At the centre, the smell of blood and dead bodies is terrible. I am only leave it to your imagination to understand what a pile of bodies smells like after a week in very hot and moist (潮湿的) surroundings, which makes you feel sick most of the time. I’m responsible for infection control, which means that my first job is to make sure of the safety of the people I work with and of myself. We have to wear our scrubs and when you undress afterwards, it looks like someone has just poured some water over you. I try to visit the patients, give them some water and help where I can. I’ll wash patients and give some physical contact (接触) to each person because nobody else will touch them and nobody else has been near them for days, so they must feel very lonely and very frightened. If we have children at the treatment centre, Which we quite often do, I’ll try to bring them some toys and have a little game with them if I can.

Depending on how many people have died, I’ll then start the very unpleasant job of moving the bodies. If the relatives want to come and say goodbye, we set up a viewing and I try to make that as pleasant as I can. I do feel fear and I can’t ignore that. Last time I was in Liberia, I’d wake up during the night and take my temperature. If I had a sore throat (喉咙痛), I’d start to wonder if I had the virus and worry, Meanwhile I do enjoy my job. After all, when we get Ebola under control, there’ll be the satisfaction of knowing I did a job that maybe not everyone could have done and that I played a small part in helping to overcome this terrible disease. 25.

80. …for that we had… that→what 作文：One possible version: Dear Editor, Recently, our class has had a heated discussion about whether students should learn on the Internet. 70% of the students are in favor of the new learning way. They think online learning is convenient and the Internet is filled with useful resources. What’s more, learners have the freedom to decide what and when to learn. However, 30% of the students hold the opposite opinion. They think they lack self-control, and can’t learn efficiently without face-to-face communication. As far as I am concerned, I approve of online learning because we can gain more useful information on the Internet. However, we high school students should make proper use of this tool rather than being addicted to the games online. Yours, Li’Hua
